This is for My Creative Sketches, and I know there are a ton of pictures, but I was trying to show you the "lace" background in the circle cut out!! I did a ton of cut work on this. Those pretty vines around circle are cut out of some old wallpaper I had! I distressed all the papers, layered the background papers, added two layers of lace at bottom, added some pretty lace flowers from Prima, a pretty lace butterfly, made the title letters, added a vintage frame, and made journal blocks! Sure hope you like it, and thanks for stoppin' by and takin'a peek! Teresa*

I took a few pictures of sides of card so you could see the depth of the little pockets on each side of inside card.I distressed all the papers, colored Tilda with distress inks, added some lace, my handmade curled flowers, did some sewing, and also followed the sketch that was provided too! Thanks so much for takin'a peek! Teresa*

I wanted to make a different card, so I designed this card using two different techniques, and I think it turned out pretty cool! The top circle is open, and Tilda sits inside it! By the way, Tilda is done in 3-D.....I layered and distressed all the papers, I made the large and the smaller curled flowers, I cut the fence using my MS punch, I used distress inks to color Tilda, and had fun putting this together! For several challenges.....Just Magnolia(school or fall), Magnolia Stamp Lovers(distress), Paper Sundaes(anything goes), Crazy 4 challenge(C4C106), Delightful Sketches(happy fall yall'),Craft Us Crazy(fall), Flutterby Wednesdays,Magnolia Down Under(fancy folds) Thanks so much for stoppin' by and takin'a peek!

This is my first time at Kraft It Up and Bird is the Word. Kraft it up, we are to use kraft paper, sewing, and material on lo. So I used some material as a strip, did some sewing on it and around paper, and also on some of the other paper too. At Bird is the Word, the word is "share". So this is what I came up with. I added alot of little embellie's, distressed all the papers, made the little pinwheels, and also added a crotched flower I made. Thanks so much for takin'a peek! Teresa*
